What if a file is in both the unoffical directory and the official directory?
Which one should win?  I think the one unofficial version should win but should
it be the other way round?  May this should be a selectable option?

You are right, both options make sense, an option would be nice, perhaps with a
third, per-file question as suggested Larry (the first two possibilities have
the advantage of unattended operation!).

Remains the question of unfound files, imho the best solution would be to create
an error log file.


An added difficulty is that reference to unofficial subfiles or
primitives included must be stripped from \s , \p , \p\48 to be found in mpd.

I like this since it's a pain to inline the s\ subfiles into the unofficial part
files befire I can create an MPD

Since I wrote that, I realized that it might be simpler to include folder
reference into 0 FILE command than stripping them from file references. But it
doesn't seem to work well with some softwares, so it is probably excluded...


I have a half finished MPD program I wrote a while back to solve a problem I
had.  Since you've expressed need and I would like to see a program that
implements some of the features you've suggested above, I think I'll clean it up
and release it.

Fine! I'm volonteer for beta testing. Actually I was about to write it myself,
but I'm not a great programmer...
